Oliver Baker

Oliver Baker (died 1862) was a resident of New Mexico during the American Civil War. In 1862, he hired the mercenary Angel Eyes to interrogate and murder former Confederate soldier Alejandro Stevens and discover the location of the Confederate soldier Jackson; Angel Eyes killed Stevens and returned with the information that Jackson had changed his name to "Bill Carson". Baker was pleased with the knowledge and gave Angel Eyes his $500 reward, but Angel Eyes revealed that Stevens had paid him $1,000 to kill Baker, and Angel Eyes told Baker that he always carried out the hit if he was paid. He then proceeded to take a pillow from under Baker's head, shove it on top of him, and shoot Baker four times in the head through the pillow.
